I need non autistic people to realise meltdowns are a real debilitating thing that has a serious effect on your mental and physical health NOWWWWW!!! The way its been trivialized and lessened pisses me the fuck off. It's not a tantrum and it doesn't come from "being too weak-willed" it's painful and it's embarrassing AND MOST OF ALL IT'S INVOLUNTARY!! Don't claim to be an ally to autistic or disabled people and then make fun of people who have meltdowns. Literally get the hell out of my sight
"autistic people are fine as long as they don't have meltdowns and aren't weird And aren't annoying and only like the things I like but don't like them in a weird way and don't talk or carry themselves in an unconventional way and only stim in a way I deem acceptable if I allow them to stim at all (stimming is cringe if you only do the hand flaps but the hand flaps are the only acceptable one) and don't make it obvious that they're autistic"<- what these people fucking sound like
